After the summer we've had in The Netherlands, there was no other option but to name my crochet beach bag the 'One hot summer beach bag'. I think we're still desperately trying to cool down here, but that's fine. And the first chance I'll get, I am taking my new crochet bag along.

Finally, finally the rain came this week. A huge thunderstorm struck for the first time in 11 weeks. How I know this, you ask? The day before our little pudding was born was the last time it really, really rained and the little man is 11 weeks old today. We were watching the rain during feeding time and we couldn't even see the other side of the street. So, I explained to our little man what exactly was this rain. I mean, he had never seen in before.

Honestly, I can't get over the fact of how much I like my new beach bag. It's large and strong, so I'm able to haul along loadsa stuff. Which is just as well, as man... you need to take a lot of gear when you have a little one, right? But even if it was just me, I am glad this bag is so spacious as there simply has to be room to take my crochet! I made this beach bag with Scheepjes Linen Soft, which is just wonderful.
Inmiddels ben ik begonnen met het uitwerken van het haakpatroon voor de tas. Dat heb ik binnen een week voor jullie online. Beloofd!

I have started to write down the crochet pattern for this beach bag and I promise to publish it within one week. So see you then?
